The sessions were moved to Ross Lake Park in Beaverton (after I drove past and saw the leaves and decided I couldn’t *not* shoot there).
There were a few probs finding it for those coming from out of town (darn GPS’s!), but thankfully everyone ended up in the right spot.
I found that the sun moves pretty quickly this time of year, and also that I’m really not that good at calling children by their own names.
But all in all, I am super excited about how smoothly everything went! You guys are all great, and my sister and I are both touched by how many families participated. You guys are awesome!!
I am super DUPER excited to show you guys some of the images. I have lots more---I haven’t even looked thru them all yet---but I wanted to share a few that stood out to me as I was glancing over them.
Here are some of the proofs that will be in online galleries next week. :)
I photographed these two when they were babies! They’re growing up!

And just as adorable as ever! It was wonderful to see them again!
On a bench in front of the lake here.

Such a great-looking family! And that little guy was so sweet!
This little girl had her smiles down pat.

What fun she was!
I can’t say enough about this family...

They are so beautiful, both inside and out.
Two of the most important people to me...

...they brought me into this world and raised me and love me.
Don’t my parents look great??
And this little boy was so adorable!

Love those cheeks and little toes!
Three generations (including three super cute kiddos)!

Very friendly, sweet family---we love them!
The sun was giving us some gorgeous light right about this time...

And this is another wonderful family---I’ve photographed the little boy several times before, and I loved doing a session with the whole family!
Another good-looking family---

---with some crazy boys (altho you can’t really tell in this picture)!
Such a fun family!
